Rebirth starts from e-commerce

Chapter 428 Join if you can't beat it
The press conference this time was obviously not very successful.

Although every reporter was routinely stuffed with a red envelope when they left.

But the benefactors behind them couldn't be moved by such a red envelope.

Luo Xiu returned to the conference room and continued to discuss with the decision-makers how to tide over the difficulties.

"The biggest problem we face now is how to restore users' trust in us. We have to think of a way."

"No, I don't think so. If users don't trust us, how can they hand over so much money to us? Our biggest problem should be to deal with the enemy."

"Then the question is, who is our enemy?"

"Ali? Penguin? Major banks? Other financial institutions? Or all of them?"

……

Everyone suddenly realized that they hadn't even figured out who the enemy was.

Even more frightening is that these imaginary enemies may all exist.

What's even scarier is that each of these enemies is stronger than rice balls.

I am like a rabbit surrounded by a group of beasts.

Originally, this group of ferocious beasts were not interested in this rabbit at all.

But now when the rabbit was digging a hole, he accidentally dug a big gold mine.

Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty.

It makes one feel hopeless.

Luo Xiu said: "You don't have to worry, I said before, in the worst case, I can send the entire rice ball payment to the country, this is not a joke."

"Then shall we send it now?"

A few days ago, everyone here thought that what they were holding was a gold mine, and they were absolutely reluctant to give it away.

But at this time, everyone has nothing to give up.

I would rather send this bomb out than explode it in my own hands.

"I'm talking about the worst, and it's clearly not the worst yet."

"Isn't that bad now?"

Everyone wants to know what is worse than the present.

Luo Xiu smiled and said: "Our imaginary enemies are indeed very powerful. We can't win any one of them, so what should we do if we can't?"

"Then surrender?"

"Of course not. Since we can't fight, then we can join one of the parties and fight others together."

After listening to Luo Xiu's words, everyone lowered their heads and thought for a while.

Li Shan asked, "Then who should we join?"

Lu Tianyun said aloud: "Join Ali, if we have such a big business selling on the Tmall platform, they should be very willing to accept us."

Li Shan immediately shook his head and denied, "No, our fantuan business overlaps with Ali's to a large extent, and we will be our biggest competitor in the future. Joining them will kill us."

"I suggest joining Penguin. Penguin has no conflict with our business at all, and Penguin has always wanted to support the e-commerce platform against Ali. It can be said that we have a common enemy with Penguin."

Luo Xiu nodded after hearing this, "Joining Penguin should be the best choice, at least every company that joins Penguin can live a relatively healthy life."

But he is still undecided in his heart, and he is not reconciled to being merged into Penguin now.

Penguin's appetite is not small. Joining at this time means that he may be crushed by this Antarctic giant in his life and become one of his many little brothers.

At this time, someone asked, "Why don't we join the universe line and sweep everything directly?"

"We need to listen to their ideas, after all, we are not familiar with them."

Everyone is not familiar with the universe line, so dare not make a conclusion hastily.

In the end, Luo Xiu concluded: "It's useless for us to build a car behind closed doors here. Go talk to these big guys and listen to their quotations."

"That's right, we don't necessarily have to unite with Wu against Cao, but we can also unite with Cao against Wu. In the end, it depends on who offers the highest price and who is most beneficial to us to cooperate with."

……

The meeting ended here, and Luo Xiu personally met with the bosses of all parties.

The first appointment was Ali.

Of course, they were very happy and sincere about Luo Xiu's arrival.

However, the process of talking about it was not very pleasant.

First of all, Ali already has Alipay, so their request is to incorporate Fantuan payment into Alipay.

Since then, there is only Alipay, and there is no rice ball payment.

It can be said to swallow the meat and bones together.

This is also in line with their usual style.

Whether their mergers and acquisitions or direct investment, in the end, the entire company is usually swallowed up to make him stronger.

For Luo Xiu, not only his hard work was ruined, but more importantly, he couldn't explain to the current team.

The second appointment was with Penguin.

Penguin is a company that can give money and traffic.

Instead of devouring you and strengthening themselves, they will feed back on you and make you stronger.

In most cases, turning to Penguin is indeed a good choice.

What makes Luoxiu hesitate is that Penguin lacks the ability to deal with the crisis.

His own ability to deal with the crisis of public opinion is not strong, and every time he fights against an opponent who is not as powerful as himself, he has the upper hand in speech.

It's just that his own life is too hard and his reputation is not good, but he can still kill you.

Now the issue of public opinion in the first phase of the granary needs to solve the trust of users. Joining Penguin may further exacerbate this problem.

And rice balls are not irreplaceable, and their fate is not as hard as others.

After meeting the two Internet companies, Luo Xiu turned and walked towards the four major banks.

As long as they come forward, all problems will be solved.

You don't have to believe in rice balls or granaries, but you can always trust the four major banks.

For Luo Xiu, transferring part of the mining rights of this gold mine to the country was something he had originally planned, but it was only a matter of time.

However, the arrogance of the Big Four almost made him collapse.

On the one hand, they are too huge, and the power to control them is too great.

In the eyes of others, the hundreds of billions of funds in the granary are very attractive, but in their eyes, this is nothing.

They have their own system and their own way of doing things.

In their view, the granary is nothing but a string of sparks in the long river of history, which can be annihilated by the wind at any time.

Luo Xiu came out of the four big banks with disappointment, and set his sights on China Merchants Bank.

China Merchants Bank was established in Shencheng in 1987. It is the first joint-stock commercial bank in my country that is wholly owned by corporate legal persons, and it is also the first pilot bank that the country promotes banking reform from outside the system.

At this time, the scale of China Merchants Bank was far inferior to the Big Four, and its market value was only 2000 billion.

But Luo Xiu knew that China Merchants Bank had experienced rapid growth in the next few years, and its market value once exceeded 4000 trillion.

It even surpassed China Construction Bank for a time, ranking second among listed banks, second only to Universal Bank.

Although it fell back a little later, it still firmly held the top three position.

Therefore, China Merchants Bank became the bank that Luo Xiu most wanted to rely on.
